ooooh well she failed the m.o.t!!
« on: 05 May 2007, 21:43 »
but the good new's is....it was only a brake pipe that need's sorting

and an advisory on my exhaust and a rear bearing....luckily I am looking for a sports exhaust and i have to replace my rear discs soon (so i must change the bearing's anyway)  :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

good old vw's...who would buy anything else as that's the second year she's not needed major work (last year was 2 cracked trye's???)
